Abstract
A stereolithography machine comprising: a tank provided with a bottom; a modelling plate facing the bottom; a moving unit suited to move the modelling plate according to a direction of movement that is orthogonal to the bottom; a coupling unit between the modelling plate and the moving unit , comprising a first coupling member integral with the moving unit and a second coupling member integral with the modelling plate and movable with respect to the first coupling member according to the direction of movement; tightening means suited to be operated in such a way as to tighten the coupling members against each other according to a tightening direction that is orthogonal to the direction of movement, in order to lock the mutual movement of the coupling members.

Stereolithography machine comprising:
- a tank suited to contain a light sensitive resin, provided with a bottom;
- a modelling plate facing said bottom;
- a moving unit suited to move said modelling plate according to a direction of movement orthogonal to said bottom;
- a coupling unit suited to associate said modelling plate with said moving unit , comprising a first coupling member integral with said moving unit and a second coupling member integral with said modelling plate and movable with respect to said first coupling member at least according to said direction of movement , in such a way as to define a plurality of mutual configurations;
- tightening means suited to be operated to lock the movement between said coupling members in any of said mutual configurations in such a way as to make said modelling plate and said moving unit integral with each other;
- characterized in that said tightening means are suited to be operated so as to tighten said coupling members against each other according to a tightening direction that is orthogonal to said direction of movement.
